Flags for timeout after job creation request and disable automatic refresh of jobs tab

[clausmichele]

For our local instance of the Web Editor, it would be nice to have:

1. A variable to set the time that the editor waits for the response (after pressing the create batch job)
2. A variable/flag to disable jobs refresh (we would like to avoid unnecessary load at our back-end side)

1. A variable to set the time that the editor waits for the response (after pressing the create batch job)

That's actually part of the JS client, I just realized. I've just checked it and except for the capabilities (GET /) there is no timeout defined. So this seems to be more an issue of either your back-end or the browser, both I can't influence. But why is creating a job so slow (tens of seconds?) anyway?

2. A variable/flag to disable jobs refresh (we would like to avoid unnecessary load at our back-end side)

Be aware that you won't get any updates then. So for example, if you submit a job, it will stick there as "queued" forever until you change tabs or request the job details (via the "i" button). Therefore I'd rather implement a config option for the reload time (so that you can reload all 10mins instead of 2 minute, for example). Same for the user details, web services, files etc.

Thanks, then we need to solve it from our back-end side.

Yes, instead of turning it completely off it would be enough being able to increase the time.

I've added support for it in v0.7.4 (available on the dev branch, not deployed to editor.openeo.org yet).
You can set it in config.js, the option is called dataRefreshInterval.
